5/7 Cubs (Lilly) @ Astros (Ortiz) - 7:05 PM CT - CSN+

[Sosa21MVP]

I'd like to see some sneaky power here.

 

Good enough.

[Guancous]

Getting the pen up?

I don't think Mrs. Ortiz expects Russ to last 5 innings.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Way to suck Geo.

[coldsteel]

BOOOO! Not winning by enough.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Aside from Hawkins and the DLd Valverde, I dont know too much about the Stros pen, but I like to think we can slap them around for the next 6 innings.

[UMFan83]

Boo. Tejada always seems to kill us.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Are we like the only team Tejada can hit anymore?

[soapy]

walk Lee, please

[UMFan83]

walk Lee, please

 

To bring up Cub killer Hunter Pence? He'd take Lilly deep.

[soapy]

Lilly gnawing on his fingers

[Little Slide Rooter]

Just take care of the spaz here.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Well that was scary.

[UMFan83]

Nice job Kosuke!

[bcl412]

Was that as panic inducing in real life as it was on ESPN gamecast?

I was listening to a fantasy baseball podcast today. The host said that he "spoke with an MLB.com reporter close to the Cubs" who said that Soto's injury is more serious than the Cubs are letting on. The reporter also said not to expect 2008 numbers.

[coldsteel]

In pregame interview, Lou mentioned hoping the 3 hour flight to Milwaukee would not adversely affect Lee's neck problem. Still pondering that.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Holy crap that was to the deep part of the park!

[Little Slide Rooter]

I was just about to make a crack about bad Soriano being locked in.

[MWV]

I'm only keeping up on Gameday, but from where I'm sitting it appears that Ted has given up a few flyball outs that would have hit the scoreboard at wrigley. Is this the case?

[Brian]

cub killer Chris Sampson

[Brian]

Is it just me or is this game insanely boring?
